BREAKDOWN
Bertie Wilberforce Wooster
30s-40s. An affluent bachelor with a tendency to get himself into tricky situations. Simply has not grown up and has little understanding of the world around him. Even though he's self centered he's very likeable and harmless.
Jeeves
40s Bertie's unflappable valet. Level headed. Always thinking 5 steps ahead. Long suffering but discreet and flawlessly mannered.
Agustus Gussie Fink-Nottle
30s-40s. A teetotaler bachelor pal of Bertie's. Anxious and lacks tact especially when under pressure. He wears horn-rimmed spectacles, and is a noted newt fancier.
Dahlia Travers
50s-60s. Bertie's aunt, a fearless soul. She alone among Bertie's gaggle of aunts appears rather fond of Bertie, despite referring to him as idiot nephew. She publishes Milday's Boudoir, a women's newspaper.
Thomas Portarlington Travers
50s-70s. Dahlia's husband. Tends to become apoplectic on the subject of taxes, but is kept in tranquil spirits by the superb meals dished up by his chef, Anatole.
Madeline Basset
20s-30s. A pretty girl, and the love interest. Her conversation tends to revolve around elves, gnomes, flowers, and small furry creatures.
Anatole
50s-60s. French accent. Highly skilled, highly temperamental French chef employed by Dahlia Travers. Often referred to as God's gift to the gastric juices, he speaks limited English and threatens violence at the least hint of culinary criticism.
